DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Effective strategies in pain research and pain management include a growing emphasis on the collaborative efforts between clinicians and researchers working to identify novel therapeutic targets, predictive factors responsible for the onset of acute and chronic pain, and the evaluation of innovative strategies of pain management. For the continued development of novel pain management strategies a commitment is needed to multidisciplinary interventions utilizing state-of-the-art knowledge developed by individuals trained in the complexities of the biological and psychosocial components of pain. To prepare the next generation of pain scientists to meet these challenges we need to create training opportunities with programmatic structure that incorporate the diverse backgrounds and expertise of training faculty backed by a strong institutional commitment that exists in a collaborative environment. The training program developed at the University of Florida has taken strides to accomplish these objectives by offering training opportunities in eight diverse areas of research. At the foundation of the training program is an outstanding pain research community characterized by a spirit of collaboration responsible for a comprehensive program consisting of didactic and research components as well as required exposure to clinical and basic research environments. The program contains: (a) a well balanced core curriculum; (b) provisions to enhance diversity; (c) a component dealing with the ethical conduct of research; and (d) steps to ensure the program meets the needs of trainees in areas of research, education, and professional development. Due to the escalating prevalence of chronic pain conditions in our society, the University of Florida pain research community recognizes the need to produce a new generation of pain specialists that will be able to contribute to the improved understanding and effective management of acute and chronic pain. The goal of the program is to produce individuals equipped to develop independent clinical and/or basic science research programs and to instill in these individuals an appreciation for the benefits of collaborative, multidisciplinary, translational programs in meeting the present and future challenges in the field of pain research. RELEVANCE: The increasing challenge presented by the management of chronic pain requires new strategies of intervention. To meet these challenges the next generation of pain scientist will need to be trained in a way that emphasizes the application of research findings to the human condition. The proposed training program emphasizes integration and translation as well as a commitment to a new era of pain research.

描述(申请人提供)：疼痛研究和疼痛管理的有效策略包括越来越重视临床医生和研究人员之间的合作努力，努力确定新的治疗目标，对急性和慢性疼痛的发病负责的预测因素，以及对疼痛管理创新策略的评估。为了继续开发新的疼痛管理战略，需要致力于多学科干预，利用由接受过疼痛生物和心理社会组成部分复杂性培训的个人开发的最新知识。为了让下一代疼痛科学家做好迎接这些挑战的准备，我们需要创造培训机会，其规划结构应包含培训教师的不同背景和专业知识，并以存在于协作环境中的强大机构承诺为后盾。佛罗里达大学开发的培训计划通过提供八个不同研究领域的培训机会，在实现这些目标方面取得了很大进展。培训计划的基础是一个杰出的疼痛研究社区，其特点是具有协作精神，负责一个由教学和研究组成部分以及所需的临床和基础研究环境组成的综合计划。该计划包括：(A)平衡良好的核心课程；(B)加强多样性的规定；(C)涉及研究道德行为的组成部分；以及(D)确保计划满足受训者在研究、教育和专业发展领域的需求的步骤。由于慢性疼痛在我们的社会中日益普遍，佛罗里达大学疼痛研究界认识到需要培养新一代疼痛专家，他们将能够为改善对急性和慢性疼痛的理解和有效管理做出贡献。该计划的目标是培养有能力开发独立的临床和/或基础科学研究计划的个人，并向这些个人灌输对协作、多学科、翻译计划在应对疼痛研究领域当前和未来挑战方面的好处的欣赏。 相关性：慢性疼痛管理带来的挑战日益增加，需要新的干预策略。为了迎接这些挑战，下一代疼痛科学家将需要接受培训，强调将研究成果应用于人类状况。拟议的培训计划强调整合和翻译，以及致力于疼痛研究的新纪元。
